    Ep. 230 - NAR Lawsuit - The New Rules For Real Estate And How To Buy A Home – PART 1

    Back in 2019, we made a rather bold prediction that the real estate market, which has been really unfair for first-tome homebuyers in the first place, would soon undergo a massive change. Initially it looks like change is definitely coming with this NAR lawsuit that’s making the headlines lately. But it’s not the real estate revolution we at the buyer’s side were hoping for. In many ways, this bogus lawsuit is even obscuring the real systemic issues and the collusion within the system that screws first-time homebuyers. What does this NAR lawsuit even mean? More importantly, how does it affect you as a first-time homebuyer? Does it change anything? Most likely not, but what can you do about it? Tune in and find out.
